Scaling V4 and Supporting Unichain

We drafted a proposal for the grant text based on past grants and the most recent proposal 85 for delegates to consider. We are happy to take feedback.

Proposed Grant Text:
GFX Labs (“GFX”) is granted an Additional Use Grant to allow GFX to use the Uniswap V4 Core software code (which is made available to GFX subject to the license available at https://github.com/Uniswap/v4-core/blob/main/licenses/BUSL_LICENSE (the “Uniswap Code”)).

As part of this additional use grant, GFX receives a limited worldwide license to use the Uniswap Code for the purposes of creating, deploying and making available aspects of the Uniswap Protocol v4 (the “AMM”); and deploy the AMM as smart contracts on public blockchain networks.

This grant does not confer rights to sublicense.

This grant does not confer rights to alter Uniswap V4 code, with the exception of adding peripheral smart contracts required to connect the new deployments to the Uniswap governance contract on Ethereum.

This grant does not confer rights to deploy Uniswap V4 without the brand name (forking).

This grant requires affirmative approval by the Uniswap Accountability Committee (UAC) prior to deployment in a production environment.

This grant requires Uniswap V4 deployments to be owned by the Uniswap DAO.

This license is conditional on GFX complying with the terms of the Business Source License 1.1, made available at https://github.com/Uniswap/v4-core/blob/main/licenses/BUSL_LICENSE.
